Didn't know you could be a bust after 11 games

He didn't say he was already a bust, but that he's starting to see the possibility of him being a bust.

Two different things.

But I'm saying how can you see someone be the possibility of being a bust after 11 games? What if in a month lonzo takes more shots and hits them more frequently? Is he still seen as a bust maybe down the line?
 
Lonzo got atleast 3 years before I call him a success or bust. So does everyone else.

Cavs might buck up and have a decent game or get embarrassed into oblivion

Bron better catch a "nagging injury" and shut it down all season

Yes, you can see the possibility of someone being a bust after 11 games. Suppose Lonzo was playing 10 times worse than he's playing now. You mean to tell me that in that case you wouldn't start to entertain the possibility of him being a bust? 11 games is enough to start to consider the possibility of someone being a bust, but it may be too soon to conclude that someone is a bust.
 
As bad as Anthony bennett was, they didn't start to consider him a flat out bust until midseason because sometimes it takes players longer to adapt to the NBA than others

Lonzo plays the hardest position in the league as a rookie. Every night he's damn near facing a potential all star. It's rare that a point guard comes into the league is immediately that nigga from the jump.

Not to mention the burden he has to carry that Lavar placed on him to do well out the gate. I'm sure that's weighing on him.

Lonzo's problem is that he's not confident right now. He was never poised to be a great scorer but you can just tell he's timid when shooting the ball or looking for his shot.

Let him fail and figure out that's the only way he's going to get better.
 
I just think ZO goes with the flow too much but that could be a way to maybe not try and bite off more than he can chew as a rookie

Either way, I'm sure he'll be fine that's my boy

Triple B's across the belly

Currently constructed the cavs won't win the east imo.If boston stay healthy they're goin to the finals

Cavs have glaring holes.They need a rim protector,2nd scorer(lil zeke can provide that but he'll be a liability that will make their defense even worse) and they flabby.It's ova

Did they ask him that specifically cuz Kidd might be thinking overall instead of just the beginning of their careers.

Edit. Found it. By his tone it's almost like he thinks the comparison is blasphemous

Initially I thought we were too inexperienced on the bench but guys are playing well and stepping up. As the season goes on and confidence grows I can see us giving the cavs problems
